Default Bolster Seat Repair

I was searching around the board and found that some people have had to repair their worn out seat bolsters. My driver side looks pretty sad and am looking into getting something done about it. I was wondering if any of you local guys has tried this yet? I wanted to see if there were even better ways or something that would last even longer...

I borrowed this from (https://www.s2ki.com/s2000/topic/850...-seat-bolster/)

I don't think i would do that specifically because its way to ghetto lol. I would just order actual seat foam and shape it as needed then reuse or replace the hog rings.

I always thought it would be fun to try layering a memory foam mattress pad type material with a higher density foam underneath it.
